Xiaomi piston V2.0 gold

[Mclairs83]

yay my piston finally arrive, but UPS damn f-up deliver at 10.30pm... lucky my parents still have not sleep as i was still in school...

speaking of which, initital test seems rather impressive consider i bought it for only $11.80...

btw, is it just mine or everyone set comes with a chocolate smell on the earpiece and box? LOL!

Original iF piston will smell like chocolate.

Used it with both redmI and dx50. This thing got no lack in bass but other sections lose out. Overall 9/10 for its price.

hi, may i know where i can still get this piston?

 

[bangdoll]

The only option now is to post in buy/sell forum and request for one.
You'll have to make effort to check if the piston is genuine since there are many bootlegs floating around.

Or wait for the next Xiaomi "Offer! Offer!" online promo.

penknife is good but best is those dethreading tool used by seamstress, it not use a pointy bigass needle haha then slowly pierce the foam attached to the tube using a slicing action )

Anyone feel that except for the bass, the rest of the sound frequency seems veiled somehow? Can modding the IEM by removing sponge inside solve this issue? What tips are you guys using?

i removed the small sponge inside.

bass got lowered a bit and mids got a little more forward.

but the effect is tiny, need to really listen properly to hear the difference.

Not much to say for the Piston except,

Best Value. Best Price to Performance. Period.

Biggest drawback is isolation (which is a moot point for its design).

If that is the case, there seems to be no point modding it. I was thinking it might make a big difference and the sponge is there to tame the highs and mids and increase the feel of the bass. It seems like I guessed wrong then. Too bad...

 

[w3ird0lol]

finally received mine! Trying them out now. Mine was not gold colour as stated during purchase, it's brown and got the 'choco' smell

 

[tenz1204]

For It's price to value, there is nothing I can complain about it.
